[QUOTE="ssmann, post: 401814, member: 18956"] Friends, After replacing the aircond temparature sensor @ Naidu's, I have the following problems: - 1. When the car is idle, e.g. I wait in the parking lot whilst the Mrs goes into the supermarket for 5 mins....the aircond is not cold. When I drive it gets cold.....anyone experience this before? 2. The a/c releases a hissing sound when on. E.g. sounds like a snake lives in the blower or gas escaping....not always...but comes on and off....any ideas whats wrong? How to fix? Is this a valve problem? Unrelated to the a/c are some gearbox experiences, I am hoping to get some thoughts on: - 1. When going up a hill or on an incline....the gear box makes a violent shift of gear from 1 to 2.....I recently changed ATF oil, gasket, mounting etc 2. Also at times, the gear changes not entirely smooth, eg. can feel uneven pressure on gear change...as if the gear if being forced to engage Most of the time the box is smooth with good gear changes....but plays up from time to time....any ideas to share? Thanks a million! [/QUOTE]
